Well I did arrive safely in Japan, tired but safe. Cleared all the procedures to enter the country and onto the bus to Yokohama (3500 Y) with my luggage all efficiently labelled and checked in. The trip in was a little worrisome - it all looked like a concrete jungle!
After about one and a half hours of travel we reached YCAT (Yokohama City Airport Terminal - or something like that - really it's the bus depot). Retrieve my luggage and off to the taxi rank. This was a wonderful experience - the taxi driver in his white gloves and white cap was so polite, the inside of his taxi was spotless with little white frilly covers on the seats. Arrived at the Star Hotel and get checked in. Taxi 1450 Y
On the local bus (210 Yen) and off to see Sonya. A delightful afternoon chatting and catching up as we walked and explored the immediate area. As night fell it got dark very early and much colder. Thanks Sonya for making me feel so welcome.
